Description

Brewed in 1995 to celebrate our 150th anniversary. A bottle conditioned recipe inspired by the original Fuller's brewing books. The Amber malts and Goldings hops combine to create a superb fruitcake aroma along with the biscuity & nutmeg malt.

Brew Notes

Best poured slowly, 1845 delivers a sweet, fruit cake aroma, a dark tawny colour and a dry finish that sings of spices and raisin. Those fruity characteristics harmonise perfectly with the biscuity malts amid a clever and complex range of subtle flavours, the depth of which you could only find in a live beer fermented in the bottle.

Reviews

I'm always on the look

"I'm always on the look out for bottle conditioned beers so was pleased to see that Fullers actually had a couple in their current line up. The 1845 ticks all my boxes, it has that strength that is reminiscent of the Belgian Trappist ales I used to enjoy in my youth and is very drinkable, perfect for sipping on a summer evening at my garden bar!"

4. 5 Nice clean beer full

"4. 5 Nice clean beer full of flavour and good after task. Pours well and has a decent head as you would except from bottled conditioned beer. The 1845 & London Porter are excellent bottled beers. Never tried these on draught as I am not sure they are available."

— Russell R. (4/5)

The King of beers

"At 6. 3% this ale can be slowly quaffed. The flavours are sumptuous but not overpowering. A rewarding blend that hits the spot. Magnificent!"

Fantastic beer

"Another Fullers ale that can be drunk at any time, like Winter Ale, I can chill this for 30 minutes before drinking in hot weather and it still tastes like proper ale."
